COACHELLAS RANDY CABALLERO BACK IN ACTION WHAT: Tickets for the March 4 TeleFutura Sólo Boxeo Tecate event at Fantasy Springs Resort Casino go on sale THIS Friday, January 28. WHEN: Friday, January 28 at 10:00am PT PRICES: $25, $35 and $45 MA: There are many videos out there with Timothy Bradley and Nonito Donaire praising your skills. When you hear them say those things about you, how does it make you feel? It makes me feel real good coming from guys like Timothy Bradley and Nonito Donaire. Those guys are at the top of their game. They see the talent that I have, it makes me feel good it makes me want to keep moving forward and make it to where they are at. MA: How did the Golden Boy deal come about? Before I had turned pro I had signed with TKO Promotions. Then something happened with their company thats when De La Hoya talked to my manager about signing me. He picked me up right away and thats when I signed with them. I am glad I am with them because they are one of the biggest companies out there. MA: I hate to ask this but since you have sparred with both Abner Mares and Nonito Donaire, if those two were to fight how would that play out? Both of those guys are really, really, good. I have sparred with both of them. I get great workouts with both of them but they are two different styles. Abner Mares is more of a Mexican fighter: comes forward tries to push you back. If you dont let him push you back then you can stay in there with him and put pressure and he cant take that. He is a great fighter. I dont take anything from him. Look at where he is at! He is at the top right now and hopefully he keeps going from there. For Nonito, he is my boy and he is very talented and fast on his feet. I love the way his footwork is. He knows when to throw his punches at the right time. I think if that fight was to ever happen. I would probably say Nonito would take him. MA: You expressed your pride of being Nicaraguan descent. What are your thoughts on Ricardo Mayorga? Ricardo is a crazy fighter. Him being Nicaraguense, I went to Nicaragua not too long ago, and there are a lot of people that are not on his side. Maybe because of the way he is? In this sport he is a very marketable fighter because of the way he is. The attitude he has he brings people. He has a different talent than anybody else: A crazy fighter. Ricardo vs. Cotto is going be a real good fight. I think I am going have to go with Cotto though. He is a good fighter. entire article: http://ringsidereport.com/?p=8193
